DUSSEHRA

2008-10-09T20:23:20Z

Dussehra�, also known as�Vijayadashami�, is a festival celebrated in varying forms across�Nepal�and�India. It is celebrated on the tenth day of the bright fortnight (Shukla Paksha) of the Hindu�autumn�month of�Ashvin�or Ashwayuja, and is the grand culmination of the 10-day annual�Navratri�festival. It is the largest festival of�Nepal, and celebrated by Hindu and non-Hindu Nepalis alike.

The underlying tradition and mode of celebration vary vastly by region. However, all festivities celebrate the victory of the forces of Good over Evil. It is considered an auspicious day to begin new ventures in life.

A lesser-known tradition associated with the festival relates to the�Mahabharata, specifically to the one year incognito exile period the�Pandavas�underwent following a preceding 12 year�vanvas, or forest exile, that was imposed on them. Disguise being indispensable, they found it necessary to lay aside the many divine and distinctive weapons that they possessed. They secreted these in a 'Shami' tree (Prosopis spicigera) near their incognito residence. When the year ended, they returned to the spot, found their weaponry intact, and worshipped (in thanksgiving) both the�Shami�tree and the Goddess�Durga, presiding deity of strength and victory. Meanwhile, the�Kauravashad invaded that area, suspecting the residence of the�Pandavas�there. Upon finishing their devotions, the�Pandavas�made straight to battle, and won the contest comprehensively. The day that all these events occurred on has since been known as�"Vijayadashami", where"Vijaya"�is the�Sanskrit�word for "Victory". The fact of the comprehensive success of the Pandavas in their endeavour has been extrapolated to the everyday ventures of the common man today. People exchange�Shami�leaves and wish each other victory in their own ventures and efforts.
